70s Throwback with Reclaimed Vintage

Okay, so I fucking love jumpsuits. I’d never ventured near them before for fear of them looking absolutely horrendous. But when I was feeling rather brave during an ASOS search I found this lovely jumpsuit from Reclaim Vintage. I loved the off the shoulder detail and the white on black floral pattern. Lo and behold I think I rather suit them!

What do you guys think of jumpsuits? I was quite afraid that my body shape wouldn’t suit them but I think because I’m 5″10 they kind of work? I can’t wait to add to my collection as I feel they’re perfect for festivals, summer and holidays.

In keeping with the jumpsuit 70s vibe I decided to pair my outfit with some platform mules from Jeffery Campbell. The only issue with these is is that because they are open back and very chunky they can slip off your feet. If you buy shoes similar to this I’d recommend getting some gel things for the heels which will avoid slippage.

As a bit of a life update I found out today that I received my grades to do my year abroad at UCLA. Providing everything goes smoothly with my VISA application I’ll be moving to Los Angeles in September. I simply can’t believe it! If you have any moving country advice for me I’d love to hear it as I’ve never lived in a foreign country before!

The off shoulder is everywhere, I got a few dresses from Asos recently but sadly no jumpsuits. You and I both love them!

Now about moving to LA, I've moved twice in the last 10 years, firstly from Brazil to Italy, then to the UK. I'm not gonna lie, it's hard. But the main thing is for you to get out and have fun. Making new friends is exciting and exploring the city by yourself really gives you a chance to learn more about you (as well as the city duh :p). Besides, it's LA we are talking about, I'm sure you will love it!
